Cherry Blossom Burmese Cafe & Sushi — Restaurant in Carlsbad

Cherry Blossom – A Local Gem with Heart, Flavor, and Freshness

Cherry Blossom is one of those rare spots that makes you feel good the moment you walk in. From the warm welcome by the man working the counter to the clean, refreshing ambiance filled with fresh flowers, everything about this place feels thoughtful and inviting. It’s clear that care goes into every detail.

I ordered the tea leaf salad with chicken, and it was absolutely amazing. The flavors were bright and complex — crunchy, tangy, savory — with perfectly cooked chicken that pulled it all together. It’s one of those dishes you immediately want to tell your friends about, and definitely something I’ll be ordering again.

To drink, I had their iced tea, which was just as impressive — crisp, flavorful, and not overly sweet. A small thing done very well.

The service was excellent, fast and friendly, and you can tell how much pride they take in what they do. I love that the chef is also the cashier — it brings a real connection between the food and the person serving it. He clearly knows his craft and puts a lot of heart into it.

As I sat there, I saw people walking over to Jersey Mike’s next door, and I couldn’t help but think — they're missing out. Why settle for a processed chain meal when you can enjoy something healthier, fresher, and made by hand just a few steps away?

Supporting local businesses like Cherry Blossom matters. It means supporting real people, real food, and a better community. If you’re nearby, skip the sub shop and treat yourself to something truly satisfying here. You’ll walk out full, refreshed, and already planning...

I’m in town to visit my son whose wife just had a new baby. After a day at the beach, I was craving poke and Cherry Blossom popped up with fantastic reviews. This place exceeded my expectations, fulfilled my craving and lives up to all those 5 star reviews. I ordered the spicy garlic salmon bowl, and it is excellent. Coming from New Mexico, I love spicy food and this did not disappoint. It’s chock full of both chilies and garlic plus a TON of large chunks of salmon. It also had cucumber, think it may have mango and pineapple in it, too. The overall flavor is excellent and fresh. In addition, I got a Burmese tea, a cross between Thai iced tea and chai. It was yummy. The gentleman at the counter was very patient as I asked a bunch of questions about unfamiliar items on the menu. I just wish I was here longer to try more of those items. But my kids will be back since they only live a few minutes away. There is a nice little patio out front to eat at as well as a super clean dining...

My sister and I stumbled upon this gem while looking for a new place to grab lunch. We were greeted at a table advertising the menu on an outdoor patio alongside a pitcher of a complimentary beverage. We ordered two dishes to share. We were intrigued by the tea leaf salad, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We also ordered the paratha with chicken and potato curry; so delicious! The complimentary beverage was a lovely concoction that I didn't catch the name of. (Perhaps the passionfruit tea) The gentleman serving us was friendly and attentive. He gave the same attention and care to each of the other patrons that dined during our visit. He also invited us to try the order ahead option for next time. This place is a new favorite! I definitely recommend giving the unique flavors of Burmese...
